Peace

As the holiday season is upon us, it makes me more aware of the meaning of peace. We are a world in turmoil, economically, politically and socially. How do we achieve peace in such a turmoil? A reading from the 14 Dalai Lama helped me to remember that each and everyone of us must be at peace with ourselves, so that we can extend that peace to others.

"I believe that to have world peace we must first have inner peace. Those who are naturally serene, at peace with themselves, will be more open towards others. I think this is where the very foundation of universal peace lies." by The 14th Dalai Lama
